In a surprise drop, the first six episodes of the long-awaited ARK: The Animated Series are now available to stream on Paramount+.
ARK: The Animated Series is based on ARK: Survival Evolved and you can check out the new trailer right here. It was also confirmed that part two of this first season will debut at a "later date" with seven episodes.
Before we get to what the show is actually about, we have to talk about the absolutely stacked cast that is led by Michelle Yeoh, Russell Crowe, Gerard Butler, David Tennant, Jeffrey Wright, Elliot Page, Madeleine Madden, and Vin Diesel. Now, back to the story.
"An animated adaptation of the hit video game featuring Yeoh, Butler, Crowe and Diesel, ARK: THE ANIMATED SERIES is a sweeping saga spanning eons of human history," The official description reads. "When 21st century paleontologist Helena Walker (Madden) finds herself resurrected on a mysterious primeval island populated by prehistoric beasts, she must learn to survive with new allies from throughout time, while trying to uncover the true nature of their strange new world."
This series was first announced in December 2020 during The Game Awards and followed the reveal of ARK 2, which also stars Vin Diesel. We received a new trailer for ARK: The Animated Series at the end of 2022, but news has been mostly quiet on the project until the surprise release of the first six episodes today.
As for ARK 2, it is currently on track for a late 2024 release and was described by Snail Games CEO as the company's "next masterpiece."
In the meantime be sure to check out all the details of ARK: Survival Ascended, the remake of ARK: Survival Evolved that is currently in Early Access.
